I did sign in here to start my Hotwire search/booking session.
Been a while since I booked hotels and used the BetterBidding service. Lots of new useful features. Thank you.

Glad to see you got it working.
I just tried on an iPod Air2 and it worked well... so we can investigate if this is an isolated issue or if it's an issue with all models of a certain iPad, could you please send me a message (or reply here) with the version of your iPad; we can then try to get a similar model and test to make sure it's working correctly on all versions.
Thanks, and good luck with your bidding... if you'd like help with a bidding strategy let us know.

The BiddingForHotelRooms.com site gives you a form that takes you directly to the Name Your Own Price page.
I just tried the link above and it loaded fine (as did the city, state, and dates that i inputted).... what location and dates are you searching for so i can try the same to see if i encounter any issues?
Exactly what issues are you having... does the link above not load, are you able to load the page above but when you input your information the Name Your Own Price page doesn't load; at what point does the issue occur and is there any error message?
PS- note that you can also subscribe to this thread by clicking the 'Follow' button on the top right... this way you will know when there is a reply made.

I started at Betterbidding.com. I went up to $225 for a 4.5 star room with no success and then tried $250 for a 4 star room, also with no success. I waited a few hours and then tried again. After a couple of unsuccessful rebids my bid of $260 for a 4.5 star room was accepted by Hyatt Regency. I have stayed at this property before and really like it. This is the first time I have stayed during the summer, so the room was much higher than in the past, but I was not shocked at the price.

Congrats on your success.
Really nice win for this Hampton Inn property! Glad you are pleased with the result and are looking forward to your stay.
Thank you using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchase and sharing your win, helping us update the Chicago Hotwire Hotel List with this new HOTWIRE property.
Enjoy your stay.

Total cost $137.96. Listed price was $59/night for a king bed or standard room but used the Hotwire Coupon Getaway10 code for 10% discount making actual cost before taxes and fees of $53.10/night. Got a king bed. For $63 one could get a king with sofa bed, and for $65, two double beds Used BB HOTWIRE link. Am VERY pleased with the deal. I had booked this hotel on hotels.com last night for $105/nt plus tax so I'm saving over $100. Amenities listed were free breakfast, free internet, airport shuttle, fitness center, business center.. Hotwire listed the Trip Advisor rating as 4.5/5. Then it showed me 4 hotels, and guaranteed it would be one of the 4. Hampton was the only one that had a 4.5 rating -- others were 3.0-4.0 -- so it had to be the Hampton. It's hard to find good deals around Midway Airport -- I know the area well since I grew up in Chicago -- so I jumped on this as soon as I saw it.

Welcome to Betterbidding! 😀

I have been watching downtown hotels on Better Bidding for while because a friend and I are going to see "Hamilton". Today what I knew had to be the Van Zandt popped up as a deal for $185. It had the same stars (4), rating (9+) and amenities as the KHVZ so I clicked on it and- yep!- it is the Van Zandt. Excited to see it and stay there after reading about it since the opening.

HOTWIRE links to specific hotel offers don't typically work on any computer but your own... and they expire about 30-40 minutes after the search anyway, which is why you need to list the full details of the offer so we can research it. Based upon the information already provided i assume this is the one you're referring to:
4* HOTWIRE Center Strip - Eiffel Tower for $106.00
Resort
Casino
Fitness
Pool
Restaurant
Business
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
Spa
Blind Accessible
Deaf Accessible
Travel Accessible
Room Accessible
Bathroom Accessible
Handicapped Parking
Roll-in Shower
==> if so, this is likely Planet Hollywood... but it definitely is not The Mirage since that property is not in the Center Strip - Eiffel Tower zone; or was it a different hotel you're referencing that was in some different zone?

Thanks for your help!
We were hoping to find something around 500 Euros/560 Dollar for those three nights. But it seems like October is a very pricey month to visit Las Vegas and get a good deal on a decent hotel.
I've looked at Hotwire and this offer and it shows a room picture from the Mirage. Price is 106$ per night, resort fee being 42$ per night. Do you think it could be The Mirage?

Welcome to BetterBidding!
How about:
5* The Strip - Northeast (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $149/nite with:

Hey everyone,
I am looking for a 4 or 5 star Casino hotel in Las Vegas for three nights from 10/14 until 10/17.
I've been looking at rates at Hotwire and Priceline, but am not sure yet which one to book.
Preferrably we would like a nice deal on Bellagio, Venetian, Encore etc. But we're also fine with The Mirage.
Can someone help and give some good advice?
Thanks!!

Yes, you can still 'name your own price' on Priceline.
As price continues to move/hide the bidding page, we have set up the following for direct access to the bidding form (you can book mark now for future use):

If you'd like help with a suggested bidding strategy let us know the details of your trip (location, acceptable zones, desired star rating, maximum bid price, dates of travel) and we will advise accordingly... otherwise let us know how your bidding goes or how we can be of further help.
